A system to provide alignment between a source resonator and a capture resonator. The source resonator is configured to emit a magnetic charging signal or a magnetic beacon signal. The source resonator is coupled to an electrical power source that provides current to the source resonator. The source resonator emits the charging signal when the current exceeds a first threshold and emits the beacon signal when the current is below a second threshold. The capture resonator is configured to receive the charging signal and provide electrical power based on the charging signal. The system also includes a magnetic sensor configured to receive the beacon signal and provide a location signal indicative of a relative location between the transmit and capture resonators to a controller that provides an alignment signal indicative of a movement required to align the source resonator and the capture resonator.
